Satoshi's early mined coins & the message left in the blockchain

[lifeforcepools]

It seems to me that some people have too much free time to think about such things.

'The selected set of bytes (0 to 9, 19 to 58) could have been selected to map a somewhat extended alphabet into this set. This must be explored further.
Another idea that crossed my mind is that the set itself has a kind of hidden message... I hope my friend Timo (the mathematician) now finds the hidden message and brings me some peace.'


Base58 isn't appropriate for text messages. Bitcoin uses Base58 for WIF publickeys and privatekeys.

Having a read through this, somewhat interesting, but would literally be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

' Very odd with the 300 s activation time there... my gut is telling me that satoshi was playing around with timestamps, and IIRC his block times are badly out of sync with the other miners...'

He also fingerprinted his timestamps.

https://bitslog.com/2020/06/22/a-new-mystery-in-patoshi-timestamps/
'This strange pattern is a new way to distinguish the Patoshi pattern from all other coinbase sets. We had three methods already (steep fast extranonce increment, reduced nonce LSB range, no timestamp reversals), and now we add a fourth (and in a next post I will show a fifth!). So why timestamp deltas are oddly distributed is a new unsolved mystery for our large collection. In my opinion, the existence of so many distinguishers is an indicator that Patoshi wanted his/her blocks to be identified.'

Identified for what?

We say: for the privatekeys of the early mined coins. But as of February 2021 we still don't have discovered how he implemented the privatekeys into the blockchain.

He could have generated a random private key and then given clues on how to solve it, without having to create a custom private key, just my 2 cents.

'Over the last twelve years, the cryptocurrency community has always been intrigued by Bitcoin’s inventor Satoshi Nakamoto. For over a decade, armchair sleuths and journalists have tried to uncover the creator’s identity and information on the whereabouts of all the bitcoins the enigma mined when the network was still in its infancy. Now a few individuals believe Satoshi’s coins may be the greatest prize competition ever and the private keys are somehow hidden within the blockchain.'

We are trying.

We're also trying.

Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto Left Clues to Unlocking His Billion-Dollar Bitcoin Crypto Fortune, According to This New Theory

[oldgolddigger]

Having a read through this, somewhat interesting, but would literally be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

That means that it's not impossible.

It depends on how difficult Satoshi wanted it to be.

He could have generated a random private key and then given clues on how to solve it, without having to create a custom private key, just my 2 cents.

Yes, could be. With different difficulty levels so that not one person can solve all keys. That would allow him to distribute the coins.

I see you also made the news on bitcoin.com. Its really weird that either of these sources are taking what you have to say seriously. It seems like this thread is mostly one person talking to himself through different alts... You have yet to say anything specific: simply throwing out a few examples here and there isn't "sleuthing."

"Bitcoin was actually made by ancient aliens, left for us to uncover as a species in the information age."

There, see? I can do it to.

I don't know about the other users here, but I am definitely my own person, not a part of a collective hive mind 

Regardless how you feel about Satoshi leaving clues behind for others to unlock, don't you think it is strange that someone has invented a thing that is now worth $900 Billion Dollars and no one knows who that person is, and that person has also one day stopped responding to any threads on the internet and his coins never moved? This is gotta be one of the strangest and most interesting thing about the whole crypto space.

Well I can't argue with you there. People have been feeling this way about Satoshi since 2011, although maintaining his anonymity given the circumstances is certainly more significant now than then.

And don't get me wrong, I find the idea put forth in the thread (and other collected here) to be somewhat romantic and almost endearing. It potentially gives a lot of hope to a lot of people. I'd just like to see it supported by more compelling evidence.

[oldgolddigger]

I'd just like to see it supported by more compelling evidence.

Can you imagine what would happen if Satoshi back in 2009 had said that he mined a lot of coins because he had to, to support the network and then published that these coins are a treasure to be found?

[KonstantinosM]

Satoshi would have announced it. I can't imagine he'd want to do something like that un-announced because it would undermine faith in the protocol's security. I can already imagine what the FUD headlines would be.

.. if he wanted to reassure the world that he won’t crash the value of bitcoins [undernine faith in the protocol's security] , he could simply have provably destroyed the coins (there are several ways to do this and Satoshi would have known them)..

[oldgolddigger]

Sergio Demian Lerner's research is incredible https://bitslog.com/2020/06/22/a-new-mystery-in-patoshi-timestamps/ and we can now know which coins Satoshi mined.

The intention of this thread is to bring people together who maybe have discovered also other things that could help us.

Although some believe that you have to look outside the blockchain

I still think the keys are out there.
We're just looking in the wrong places.

I have done LOT of research into this and I do believe there is another project that is linked to bitcoin in more ways than one that may hold the answer to this question.

To seek the truth one must think outside the "blox" pardon the pun.

I do think that there are keys out there to be found I highlty doubt the person behind the satoshi name was a greedy or self centered individual I would put money on it there is a cryptographic puzzle out there related to numbers, Images, and the blockchain.

The question is who will solve it?

we think that one can solve it with the data inside the blockchain.

'Some old coins moved today (100 BTC from June 2010).

It's very rare to see pre-GPU era bitcoins move, it only happened dozens of times in the past few years.

And no, it's probably not Satoshi.'

Yes, it is not from Satoshi, what Sergio Demian Lerner had defined as 'Patoshi' https://bitslog.com/2019/04/16/the-return-of-the-deniers-and-the-revenge-of-patoshi/

I have to say, when I first read this, I was thinking you are all crazy.

But then I started looking, clue after clue keeps popping up. There is something hiding in plain sight. Now I find it hard to even sleep just thinking about it.

I know I just started looking but I willing to share whatever I find with anyone who helps.

Here is some key info I need:

        What was the first block that had a modified LSB?

        Where is the list of addresses that we think belonged to him?
